- High-resolution maps are being developed for automated driving with mobile platforms (ADS: Automated Driving Systems) that provide information about roads, lanes, lane boundaries, zones, etc.
- minimum risk conditions are defined as: "A state to which a user or ADS places a vehicle after performing a fallback of the dynamic driving task (DDT). to reduce the risk of an accident when a particular route cannot or should not be completed.” continues: “It may mean that the vehicle is automatically brought to a halt in its current path, or it may require a more extensive manoeuvre , which aims to remove the vehicle from an active lane and/or automatically return the vehicle to a dispatcher facility”.

- the scope of the required data of the navigation map can be reduced, since the off-road environment that may be necessary next to a lane in relation to a relevant characterization, in particular for determining an emergency -Trajectories are characterized or classified by the emergency passability rating. This means that a detailed description of the off-road environment next to a road is not required.
- the environment perception of the mobile platform is relieved from having to determine online objects in the off-road environment that are not relevant to normal operation.
- a navigation map can have a lower level of detailing of the surroundings of the road, since the essential information about the off-road environment is summarized abstractly by the emergency passability assessment.
- the assignment of emergency passability assessments to the respective off-road surroundings of the lane segments provides a redundant description for the perception of the surroundings, since the integrity of a perception of the surroundings is checked or evaluated accordingly for the determination of an emergency trajectory .can be improved.
- an at least partially automated system for a mobile platform can advantageously check under certain conditions, e.g. if the automatic driving system anticipates that upcoming environmental or traffic conditions or a sensor degradation will reduce its ability to perceive below a safe value, whether driving on a certain lane segment, or a certain zone, such as a bridge, is safe, so that it can pull the mobile platform onto a shoulder of the corresponding lane segment of a road at a certain distance in the direction of travel.
- an alternative driving range can be enlarged with such a navigation map, because with this data it is possible to calculate safe alternative routes further away on the road, even if lane segments are affected that are beyond the area of perception of the environment.
- System of the mobile platform waste or the environment perception system of the mobile platform has a defective or a limited perception.
- An environment perception of the mobile platform can use the emergency passability ratings for the off-road environment assigned to the respective lane segments as a priority in order to improve or safeguard the environment perception.
- the off-road environment information is most reliable for environments where changes in parameters from which the emergency passability rating is determined are unlikely or less frequent, eg, in environments adjacent to a highway where an occurrence or Presence of injury prone road users (VRUs) is unlikely.
- information about the off-road environment is important for route sections that lie between nodes (hubs) for automated platforms.
- the navigation map is a high-resolution digital navigation map.
- the respective data on the off-road environment has a multiplicity of parameters for describing the off-road environment and that a passability rating is assigned to the respective parameter.
- the large number of parameters describe an extent and/or accessibility and/or a hazard potential of the off-road environment.
- the plurality of parameters include one or more of the following parameters:
- the individual listed parameters of the large number of parameters can each be combined with one another as desired, for example in particular for determining an emergency trafficability assessment.
- the traversability parameter indicates a measure that characterizes the traversability of a mobile platform to the off-road environment. For example, such an ability to drive over to an off-road environment can be characterized by the fact that an obstacle between the roadway and the off-road environment must be overcome or that there is a potential hazard, especially for vulnerable road users or road users at risk of injury, when changing from the roadway to the off-road environment may exist.
- the traversability can indicate a possibility or impossibility to switch to an off-road environment with a binary measure.
- the emergency navigability assessment be determined by means of the navigability assessment of the large number of parameters of the respective off-road environment.
- the corresponding parameters can be selected according to a realistic availability of the parameters from the list presented above and combined into a single aggregated parameter, such as in particular an emergency passability rating, with individual parameters having different strengths for such a combination, for example in particular according to an offline-weighted aggregation.
- a respective passability assessment determines how strongly the respective parameter of the multiplicity of parameters for describing the off-road environment is included in the determination of the emergency passability assessment.
- the emergency navigability evaluation is determined using the plurality of parameters of the respective off-road environment in such a way that navigability of the respective off-road environment is determined to be impossible if a measure for the navigability to the off-road environment is below a specified limit.
- a measure for the traversability to the off-road environment is set such that, for the determination of the emergency passability rating with a combination of the plurality of parameters and the respectively assigned passability ratings, if the measure for the passability is below one specified limit value for the passability, the measure for the emergency passability rating indicates that the respective off-road environment is not passable.
- a method for determining an emergency trajectory for a mobile platform comprising the following steps:
- a location of the mobile platform is determined.
- an associated lane segment of the navigation map described above is determined for the location of the mobile platform.
- neighboring off-road surroundings which are assigned to neighboring lane segments of the specific lane segment, are identified.
- emergency passability assessments are assigned to the neighboring off-road environments and the emergency trajectory that includes at least one neighboring off-road Environment includes, is based on the specific location of the mobile platform to a holding position, taking into account the emergency passability rating of at least one adjacent off-road environment determined.
- a cost function can be used to determine the emergency trajectory, which includes either individual parameters of the passability assessment or a weighted combination in the calculation of the cost function.
- a passability assessment can be explicitly provided as input for the calculation of emergency trajectories.
- the stop position of the emergency trajectory is determined in a neighboring off-road environment and the emergency trajectory includes a further neighboring off-road environment that is different therefrom.

- a route can be determined offline using the large number of parameters and/or the emergency passability rating or the respective passability rating, which route has a sufficient number of options for stopping the mobile platform in an off-road environment. Routes for which such possibilities of stopping the mobile platform in an off-road environment are reduced can accordingly be avoided in route planning.

- based on is to be understood broadly in relation to the feature that a control signal is provided based on an emergency trajectory. It is to be understood that the determined emergency trajectory is used for any determination or calculation of a control signal, this not excluding the possibility that other input variables are also used for this determination of the control signal. The same applies to the provision of the warning signal.
- a device which is set up to carry out one of the methods described above for determining an emergency trajectory and/or a method described above for selecting a route.
